English Applications

Hi,

Been using openSUSE Tumbleweed KDE 64Bit for about a week.
My only complaint is “BleachBit” system cleaner is not available for Tumbleweed.
Will it be released soon?

Search for the ‘Experimental’ package (Utilities repo)…

Hi
It needs to be python3 ready… ask the maintainers to look at updating and submitting…

Hi,

Anyone here use BleachBit on Tumbleweed?
I’ve used BleachBit for many years on *ubuntu distro’s with no issues.
Just a little worried it would break my system.
Let me know, thanks!

Tried BleachBit on Tumbleweed:
It installs fine, but when I run it in Start menu nothing happens?

Running in Konsole show the following:

SortaFastDesktop:/home/jlp # bleachbit
scandir is not available, so falling back to slower os.walk()

(process:19901): Gdk-CRITICAL **: 13:25:25.490: gdk_screen_get_root_window: assertion 'GDK_IS_SCREEN (screen)' failed

    self.populate_window()

    operations = self.create_operations_box()

    self.tree_store = TreeInfoModel()

    GObject.TYPE_STRING, GObject.TYPE_BOOLEAN, GObject.TYPE_PYOBJECT, GObject.TYPE_STRING)
TypeError: GObject.__init__() takes exactly 0 arguments (4 given)

Any ideas?

Which one did you install?

I use the one from the user ‘deltafox’, it has been build against python3 already and works fine with my Tumbleweed installation.
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home%3Adeltafox/bleachbit

Question remains: Do you really need it? I only use it to get rid of all those unnecessary language packages and leave everything else untouched.

Hi
Language packages go via;


rpm -qa *-lang --qf "%{name}
" |xargs zypper rm -u

zypper al *-lang

Thank You.

Hi,

i used the “deltafox” one too…
It installed fine, just does not run?

Hi
Again, on Tumbleweed, if python2 dependent it is going, going and will be gone.

11

Hi,

As previous post stated, the BleachBit I tried to use is built against python3.
Any ideas why this is not working?
Thanks!

Hi
So where did the package come from? Is python3-scandir installed?

14

Hi,

Installed: “python3-scandir”, but BleachBit is still refusing to run on Tumbleweed?
Any other ideas?

I downloaded BleachBit from below:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home%3Adeltafox/bleachbit

Hi
Edit these three files (the packagers should fix this) and make sure the whole shebang is #!/usr/bin/python3


   50s] bleachbit.noarch: E: env-script-interpreter (Badness: 9) /usr/bin/bleachbit /usr/bin/env python3
   50s] bleachbit.noarch: E: env-script-interpreter (Badness: 9) /usr/share/bleachbit/CLI.py /usr/bin/env python
   50s] bleachbit.noarch: E: env-script-interpreter (Badness: 9) /usr/share/bleachbit/GUI.py /usr/bin/env python3

See if that helps, the packagers also need to run the service as there have been further updates to the source which may or may not help.

Version 2.2 still works and installs:

I have built the current version 3.2 with python3:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:Herbster0815/bleachbit

There is one minor issue at the moment: The menu-entry for “bleachbit as Administrator” is not shown, no idea why… But the tool itself is working.

18

Btw, the mentioned package https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home%3Adeltafox/bleachbit is a link to my project but broken at the moment

19

Hi
Could be the warning about the whole shebang… this is what I use to clean up in %prep section


find . -name "*.py" -exec sed -i 's|#!%{_bindir}/env python|#%{_bindir}/python3|' {} ";"
find . -name "*.py" -exec sed -i 's|#!%{_bindir}/env python3|#%{_bindir}/python3|' {} ";"

Hi Malcolm,

thx for the hint. I implemented your lines and rebuild the package. Will check at home if both menu entries are shown now.

Best regards
